    Lightbulb Does anybody do car body work/know of anyone who does car body work?

    Hey guys. Kind of a follow on from my 'Don't fuck with gum trees' thread..

    I'm just curious to know if there's anyone out there who does car body work, and might be able to look at my car for me to see if it's repairable? If I can get away with repairing my car (and it doesn't cost me an arm and a leg) then I'll stick with it, cause darn it, the rest of the thing is okay.

    I would really have no idea if it can be repaired or not. To me, it's fucked, but you never know, I guess I've been amazed before at what can be fixed.

    Thanks in advance guys, I really appreciate it.

    Right on the b pillar otherwise it would have been worse, but looking at the way the rear door is hanging, it looks pretty bad.

    I'm no expert but that looks like a crease in the rear pillar and a tear in the roof.

    I'd say unrepairable or very expencive.

    Yeah I was thinking all exactly the same things. Thanks guys, and keep the opinions coming. It would be good to know if there are any professionals out there and what they think.

    Considering the roof is one of the main parts of the structure I wouldn't try repair it unless you had another full roof section to replace it with

    Lay down and kick up at the dent from the inside or just beat it out. Affix rear door so won't open and I would keep driving it (well what I'd do and what others would do are completely different most of the time)
